"Your payment authorization failed on card..." (Gift Card)
Hello. I m trying to pay with a GIFT CARD, but I see an error:
Your payment authorization failed on card •••1265. Please verify your information and try again, or try another payment method.
If you have a Apple Gift Card or App Store & iTunes gift card, see -> How to redeem your Apple Gift Card or App Store & iTunes gift card

When redeeming a gift card, (1) the amount will be credited to your Apple ID balance and (2) then you need to set your Apple ID balance as your default payment.
(1) See -> Check your Apple ID balance

If you update your payment method or add funds to your Apple ID balance, It would take about 1 to 3 business days in order to process.
If you're still unable to update your payment method, Contact Apple Support.
